Maybe I will get my wish and its this Friday Saturday or Sunday for the release. If not oh well mite just return the 8800 and wait and go with a cheap phone or one laying around the house till something comes out. Personally would like to have the newer technology, but with 3G and Wifi coming at the end of the year it mite be better off to wait.

Update - well the Blackberry and Q9 both show today as unavailable till further notice. No more ordering from Amazon. Guess AT&T put presurre to wait till they release as well, since its an embarrasment on ATT's part to slip up on new releases while Amazon gives it for ordering .

I was looking to upgrade mine and my wifes phones to the curve when I noticed this little restriction. Which they would have been FREE after discounts and rebates.. anyone know some other sites with better rebates than AT&T online store without this restriction? no upgrading threw Amazon if you are on a AT&T family plan..

Although having to ship the unit off for battery replacement is totally unsat.

Maybe it is your carrier and location that aren't working well with the device. As you said you tried 3 different ones.. now as a troubleshooting type of person if you try 3 brand new things serveral times maybe thats not the problem.

Of course, the email worked fine, but who cares. RIM better get its act together in this marketplace or they will plunge.

So is this news? No, not really. If you asked me or anyone else who has been waiting for the 8820 what the wait time might be before the it comes out, we would all say maybe a week or two - funny, Amazon said the same thing.
